Re: rear window + slag = shit

if theres alot and it got on the back window pretty good i dont think you can get it off. i think if it barely left marks on your window you might have a chance in getting it out. im not sure how though.. wish i could have, the window on my ranger was ****ed! the whole back window looked the left section of the window.. that was as clean as itd get

Re: rear window + slag = shit

my front one is like that, the whole front windshield is, friend that was friends with him said it was repainted a year ago, said he didnt use a grinder or anything, said its all could be from gravel/dirt hitting the winshield, but its way too bad to be that

it's worth a shot, the razor blade will help a little bit, but for the most part, it's fvcked. been there done that... i was working on a buddies truck and slag hit his brothers car window next to it. it was screwed

Re: rear window + slag = shit

I did this to my windshield, it wasnt real bad though. I just took a razor blade and ran it across the window until it was smooth. At least there arent any pieces of metal left in it.
